The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 205 Pre-Qin Ruins
night,
Zhu Yuanzhang was reviewing the memorial, but he was always absent-minded.

The disagreement with Dasun made him feel like a stick in his throat, and his mind was pulled away.

For the degree of favor of the great grandson, at present, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart is completely ranked first, and now the grandson is his heart and soul.

Now there are some contradictions, which keeps Zhu Yuanzhang in mind.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help turning his head and looking back.

There is a wall, but behind the wall is the Kunning Palace.

Where is the eldest grandson now.

With slight hesitation in his heart, Zhu Yuanzhang got up anyway.

"Your Majesty." Liu He at the door bowed quickly when he saw His Majesty approaching suddenly.

"Let's go to Kunning Palace to meet the eldest grandson and hold the lantern..."

"The minister obeys the order."

A gleam of joy flashed across Liu He's face, which meant that His Majesty had forgiven His Royal Highness Changsun, which seemed unbelievable to Liu He, and at the same time understood the position of His Highness Changsun in His Majesty's mind.

Ever since Liu He took the position of Supervisor of Ceremonies, he has never seen His Majesty submit to anyone.

In the Kunning Palace, Zhu Ying is still calculating the possibility of implementing the track, and analyzing the cost as much as possible.

Including the laying scheme of the track, and the simple structure of the track.

At this moment, there was a noise outside the door, Zhu Ying looked up and saw that it was the old man.

"grandfather."

Zhu Ying got up, the moment of surprise was followed by emotion.

He didn't expect that the old man would come directly at this time.

"Let's just come and see my grandson. Why are you still writing something at this point?" Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the black and white words on the table and asked casually.

Zhu Ying paused slightly, hesitated for a while and said: "I didn't write anything, just some experience about the recent training of soldiers."

He didn't say anything about the track, he didn't want the old man to worry too much.

After careful study, the track has indeed consumed too much manpower and material resources without an industrial foundation.

It's okay to make one, but the huge maintenance costs in the later stage will easily drag down Daming.

The track may have to be used as a combat readiness.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang didn't see the literal content clearly, he could of course guess a thing or two.

After slightly sighing, he said, "Big grandson, what we said earlier may be a little too much, but the matter of orbit is very important, and it needs to be discussed in the long run."

Hearing this, Zhu Ying felt uncomfortable, and replied: "Grandpa, is it my grandson's fault? In this regard, my grandson said it directly without careful consideration, and ignored the risks involved." .”

"About the matter of the track, my grandson will never bring it up again in the future."

Zhu Ying gritted her teeth lightly and said affirmatively.

The production of the track was a gamble for Daming.

Today's Daming is like a newborn baby, no one knows whether it can withstand this storm or not.

Since we can't make tracks, let's put our minds on shipping in the future.

When it comes to this point, Zhu Ying also wants to understand.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard that the grandson had stepped back first, relief flashed in his eyes.

"We are very satisfied that Dasun can think like this. Even if Dasun becomes the emperor in the future, he must listen to the advice of his courtiers and must not act on his own will."

Zhu Yuanzhang said softly.

Dasun is excellent, and it is precisely because of his excellence that he is very egotistical in character.

Such an overly strong character has its disadvantages and advantages.

The advantage is that it will not be interfered by the courtiers, and the disadvantage is that once a mistake occurs, it is very likely to stick to it.

Hearing what the old man said, Zhu Ying also began to reflect on herself.

From the beginning to the Ming Dynasty, to the establishment of frontier forces.

Among them, there is no military adviser to help, everything is completely controlled, dominated, and dispatched by Zhu Ying.

Among the forces of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, in order to maintain his own dominance, Zhu Ying has a strong belief similar to a cult of personality, which has created an extremely authoritarian character.

All matters, big or small, are decided by him.

Relying on the knowledge and insight brought by later generations, the road has been relatively smooth until now.

No one is perfect, and Zhu Ying, who usually seems to have a gentle personality, has been domineering in his bones after experiencing many storms.

Seeing that Dasun canceled the track plan, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say much about the pilot construction of the track. Instead, he chatted with Dasun about sweet potatoes, matchlock guns, and soldiers' drills.

Zhu Ying returned to the desk, threw the white paper on the desk aside calmly, and started talking with the old man.

In the study room, the chatter between Zhu Ying and Zhu Yuanzhang kept coming out.

At the door, a smile finally appeared on Liu He's face.

"Are you sure you heard it right, elder brother and grandpa Huang started arguing?"

In the Hall of Spring Harmony, Zhu Yunwen's eyes showed joy, and he repeatedly emphasized to the little eunuch.

"Reporting to Your Highness, when His Majesty was having dinner in the Huagai Palace, shortly after His Highness the eldest grandson entered, His Majesty's thunder and fury was heard. All the eunuchs around heard about it, and the slaves were very sure, and they definitely heard it right."

The little eunuch said with certainty.

He was not the only one who heard this matter. The eunuchs around him basically heard the loud voice at that time.

Even in the Jinshen Hall behind, some noises could be heard.

"Okay, you go down first."

"The slaves retire."

Zhu Yunwen, who got the news, couldn't wait to go to the apse. He wanted to tell his mother the news.

Zhu Yunqi, who had no hope at all, suddenly had hope at this moment.

Although we still don't know exactly what happened, but since Grandpa Huang can be so angry, it is naturally a great event.

Now that his grandson position has not been revoked, if the grandpa is disappointed with his eldest brother, he will no longer choose to announce his identity.

Maybe in September, his canonization will arrive as promised.

Although this hope was very slim, it still made Zhu Yunqi see the possibility.

The elder brother and the grandpa had a disagreement, which showed that the relationship between the two was not unbreakable.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunqi's pace couldn't help but quicken a lot.

However, when he reached the apse, Zhu Yunqi was stopped by the eunuch at the door.

"Your Highness, the empress has already rested at this moment, and the empress has an explanation. If your highness wants to talk about your majesty's anger, you can wait until tomorrow."

The eunuch saw His Royal Highness frowned, and hurriedly spoke first.

Zhu Yunqi was about to scold the eunuch, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but stop.

Obviously, my mother already knew about it, but why did you make me wait until tomorrow to talk about it?
Zhu Yunqi was a little puzzled.

However, after hesitating again and again, he held back his temper and turned to leave.

Since mother already knew, perhaps mother had already made other arrangements.

Of course, Zhu Yunqi had unreserved trust in his mother.

Inside the house, Mrs. Lu naturally heard the commotion outside, but she didn't intend to get up.

Knowing the son is Mo Ruo's mother, as soon as she heard about His Majesty's anger, Mrs. Lu guessed what her son Yunwen might think.

"Yun Wen, some things are not as simple as you think. Just one thing, how can you offset the longing you haven't seen in ten years. Back then, your father was chased and beaten by His Majesty with a stick."

"Even so, so what. It should still be what it is."

In the early morning of the next day, Fengtian Temple, early court.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat high on the dragon chair, and after the civil and military officials entered the palace, he began to solve the problems that needed to be solved in the new day.

About half an hour passed, and when many things were discussed about the same, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly said:
"We have an idea recently, let's talk about it and discuss it with the Aiqing."

The hall immediately fell silent.

All civil and military officials leaned forward slightly, wanting to hear His Majesty's words clearly. After all, Fengtian Hall is very big, if it was a little noisy, the officials at the back could not hear His Majesty's voice at all.

"Recently, when we thought about the station, we had a new idea. If we open up an official road, set up tracks, and horse-drawn carriages run on the tracks, can we pull more goods?"

"If it is enough, can even the soldiers be pulled up?"

After these words, Zhu Yuanzhang once again carefully described the possibility of wooden tracks.

After the voice fell behind, there was a lot of discussion in the hall, and all the ministers began to discuss the climate.

There was some confusion in the back row.I didn't hear what His Majesty said clearly, so I asked the officials in the front row.

Among the many people discussing, there was only one official with a strange expression on his face.

He is the official of the Dudu Mansion, a fifth-rank official, Tie Xuan.

Tie Xuan has a resolute personality, is smart and quick, and when he was studying in Taixue, he was proficient in classics and history, with outstanding achievements.

He once tried unresolved cases and immediately made a reasonable judgment. His talent was highly valued by Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang bestowed on him the word "Dingshi".

Tie Xuan is a native of Nanyang, Henan Province. His reputation in later generations is because he refused to surrender to the rebellious King Zhu Di of Yan during the Jingnan Incident, and he summoned defeated soldiers to defend Jinan, repelled Zhu Di of Yan King, and seized the throne after Zhu Di Afterwards, he was sentenced to death.

In later generations, there were many "Tie Gong" ancestral temples in various places in Shandong, all of which worshiped Tie Xuan, and the people of Jinan even regarded him as a local god or a city god.

After hearing His Majesty's narration, the reason why Tie Xuan showed a strange look.

It was all because when he was a child, he saw the orbit described by His Majesty in Nanyang Mountain.

The track was still very famous in the small village at that time, and it was a childhood memory of many children, but although everyone thought it was strange, they didn't think much about its meaning.

Tie Xuan carefully recalled the orbits he saw when he was a child, and immediately found that the structure was very similar to what His Majesty said, but exactly the same.

Whether it is a sleeper or a track wood, it is exactly the same.It's just that the sleepers have long been rotten, while the track wood is still very intact.

Tie Xuan didn't know at the moment that the track in his hometown Nanyang was the pre-Qin railway that shocked the entire archaeological world in later generations.

The railway is one of the greatest inventions in the modern history of later generations, and it has raised the transportation of the entire human race to a very large level.

Even Zhu Ying didn't know that wooden rails had been invented nearly 2000 years before the Qin Dynasty.

After nearly 2000 years, the track woods of the Qin Dynasty are still well preserved after anti-corrosion treatment, which shows the wisdom of the ancients in the pre-Qin period.

The reason why the sleepers are so rotten and has not been treated with anti-corrosion is that the pre-Qin people did it intentionally.

The softer sleepers can be closely combined with the rammed very hard roadbed to make the track stable.

This way of orbiting, whether it was in the Qin Dynasty 2000 years ago or the current Ming Dynasty, the efficiency is invincible.

If you really want to stay at full speed day and night, using horses as consumables, it is no problem to travel five or six hundred miles a day.

It's just a rail carriage, which requires a lot of horses.

After experiencing the war in the last years of the Qin Dynasty, the pre-Qin track caused great damage. In the Han Dynasty, due to the serious shortage of horses, the track was naturally abandoned.

Due to the impact of the waste of the track on traffic, the track was gradually dismantled, and the wooden track was hard, and many people in the vicinity used it as a beam for the house.

Thus, the pre-Qin track disappeared into the long river of history.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Han Dynasty, in order to offset the influence of the Qin Dynasty, naturally some achievements of the Qin Dynasty would not be mentioned.

After the great Han ruled the world, the people recuperated, and there was no need for too many wars. The repair of the track was very expensive, and there was an extreme shortage of horses, so naturally it was unnecessary.

After Tie Xuan pondered carefully in his heart, he stopped hesitating, walked into the main hall, bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang on the dragon chair and said:
"Report to Your Majesty, regarding the track, I have a report."

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was a minister he valued more, so he said, "Does Dingshi have any ideas, tell us, this kind of orbital matter is just an idea, Dingshi just speaks out."
